It is the belief of Stepping Stone Transitional Living Program that all young people
deserve the opportunity to develop the skills, behaviors, and attitudes needed to become
independent, mature, responsible, and productive adults. Self improvement can be
facilitated with the guidance and support of caring, respectful adults in a physically and
emotionally safe environment. It is our mission to provide the opportunity for self-growth
to those young people to whom it has been previously denied.
Stepping Stone is a 8 bed
transitional living program located in State College, Pennsylvania. Licensed by
the Pennsylvania Department of Public Welfare, the program serves
placement and homeless youth
ages 16 to 21 for up to 18 months of programming. The program's primary mission
is to provide youth with a nurturing, supportive, and challenging environment
conducive to learning the independent living skills needed to make the
transition to self-sufficiency. Stepping Stone is one of many programs of the Centre
County Youth Service Bureau, a non-profit corporation that has provided counseling
services to children, youth and families for 25 years.
